About 2 months ago Lauren and I decided to run a race. A 5k was not that much of a challenge so we found a 10k and signed up. We also talked a few other fun people into coming along with us (some were easier to convince than others...or at least that is what they wanted me to think :-). We all trained, and yesterday, we all ran the
Blimpie Gwinnett 10k (which we all discussed was a hilarious name that made us think of really, really large people running and every time I told people what race we were running they sort of chuckled). Everybody finished and did a great job. I was super proud of everyone.
What is so funny is that Lauren and I got trophies...........hilarious. Neither of us ran to win anything, nor expected to and when they called our names we both laughed. She got 2nd in her age group and I got 3rd in mine. Neither of us had times that were impressive, but none-the-less we have trophies to show off for our efforts.
After the race we rewarded ourselves with creamy, dreamy grits from
The Flying Biscuit.....it was glorious! Here are the awesome girls post-race! Great job ladies!

next) you changed your layout. no more latin! we still need to work on the header though...
next after that) i am always surprised at how long it takes me to blog. i just made 2 entries and it took way too long. probably because of the picture editing and not so much the actual blogging. nonetheless, it is 1pm and i am still wearing pajamas
finally) homemade strawberry ice cream - yes please!
